Awesome soap. Fantastic cushion, scent, fast lather. Totally upped the shave. Smooth. No nicks. Lasting slickness, even after rinsing. Used a shark blade, Merica razor. Your pre shave soap. Still BBS 12 hrs later. The scent is clean. Refreshing. very glad I bought it. cant wait for a balm and after shave splash. perhaps even a cologne?????
That is a very apt summary of this soap, IMO, couldn't have said it better myself. I'm only 2 shaves in thus far, and it seems a few rungs above most of the other shave soaps I've used so far. I'm amazed at how fast it can charge a brush.
Hi Matt, 1955 is an excellent addition to the Rex Supply Co. family. It certainly hits all the points in a tallow-based soap. In other tallow-based barbershop-type scents I have used, 1955 has that last piece of the puzzle to make it complete. Congrats!! I can't wait to see what is in store for 2023.
Those scent notes sound truly lovely. The only thing my grandfather's bathroom smelled of was dried homegrown lavender. He was a war hero, so nobody dared even approach the subject with him.
I just switch from store bought goop to Poraso white a couple months ago based on your video and it was a game changer. Just got my first tallow soap in this week, and again, game changer! Never thought a chore like shaving would be this enjoyable or have so many layers/levels to it.
Morning Matt. I've found the 1955 soap is a very easy soap to lather. I'm also glad to see you expanding the REX line. It is almost a natural faze to follow for you REX razor line. I enjoy your RE soaps and splashes also but like the idea of the REX soap line and splashes. Possibly a line of custom accessories, brushes and mugs. Thanks again for showing everyone the new product and look forward to more. Be safe and enjoy the weekend.
Wow! Just used this soap for the second time today, and while I wasn't super keen on the scent at first, I'm starting to really like the clean / fresh / natural scent. The lather is amazing! Think I finally figured out how to properly lather today, and the post shave feel is great, it felt like I had already applied a balm. Very happy with this soap, for sure one of my top favorites.
Thanks for creating this soap! I have had a few other brush soaps and found them to be a bit of a task to build a decent lather. 1955 can be used with a brush to create a quick, creamy lather with great slickness and protection to get a quick shave in. This is how enjoyable lathering is supposed to be. Some other soaps can make this quite the task which takes some of the enjoyment out of it. I’ll DEFINITELY be back for more 1955.
My favorite shave soap used to be the Razor Emporium lavender soap. But I haven’t used it since I got the 1955 shaving soap, I use it everyday now. I really hope you keep making it, this stuff is awesome!
Hi, Matt. I recently received my first order from RE, which included samples of the 1955 and 1956. Thanks for the sample of the RE Heritage soap you threw in. I haven't yet tried the 1955, but I've used the 1966 a few times and just finished a shave with the Heritage. I applied lather with the Semogue 610 boar brush: for my beard (black guy, curly, wiry hair) I think boar is superior to badger (I have one) or synthetic. I prepped my beard with the RE Pre-Shave Soap (terrific product). Razor is a 1959 Gillette Fatboy, set at 4, with Personna Lab Blue blade. It's close, but the tallow soaps get the nod from me. Both soaps lather very well. There's more residual lubricity for touch-ups with the tallow soap, though there's plenty of lather in the brush with either soap. I concur on the beneficial effects the tallow base affords the skin. I'm going to try the 1955 sample next, then send in an order: I suspect I'll be ordering both. I'm looking forward to using them with my straights, as well.
Just ordered one this morning! Can’t wait to try it with my Rex Ambassador! 💈Thank you to Matt and the entire team at Razor Emporium for taking care of the wetshaving community with your incredible products and excellent service! Happy Holidays everyone!💈🪒🎄🎅🏻🤶🏻🎁🎉
My experience has been that both vegan and tallow soaps can offer peaky, creamy lather but I give the nod to tallow for the post-shave which is the tie breaker for me personally. Congrats, Matt, on your continued success with both RE and Rex. Merry Christmas everyone!
Matt, Sounds like an interesting shave soap with a great lather. I already use your pre-shave bar and agree, it’s excellent. I appreciate your enthusiasm for bringing a new artisan product to the wet shaving community.
I got the 1955 splash. NEVER AGAIN! They must use Vaseline Hair Oil for a base. Very oily/greasy. A splash should be cool, refreshing, astringent... evaporating, leaving only the scent. 🙁
Just ordered this soap - can’t wait to try it out. I hope the balm/splash is right around the corner because I do love matching scents in my shaves. I don’t have a preference with vegan versus tallow soap. I usually try them based on scent profile. My favorite soap to use happens to be vegan, the PAA/RE King R. Emporium. Maybe 1955 can become my favorite tallow soap.
UPDATE: Yeah, 1955 has quickly become my favorite tallow soap. It’s now my go-to shave soap. The post shave feel is incredible. The scent is pleasant and doesn’t give me a headache. I can’t wait to see the other scents Matt and Rex Supply Co have up their sleeve.
Hi Matt, Off topic from this video, I watched your cold water video and man thanks a bunch. I too have sensitive skin and the cold water shave has now rid me of burn & bumps. THANK YOU... Merry Xmas and happy New year to everyone. 😃
Matt💈💈 Nice shave and congrats on 1955 tallow soap, sounds and looks supreme. Packaging is eye appealing for sure. Waiting for the splash/balm to complement and further items in the REX line, it's been class from the beginning. Thanks, enjoy!
Nice addition to the Rex supply line. I like the design of the labeling: simple, elegant, classic. I can't stand labels with dragons, skulls, unicorns, etc
I am relatively late to the game of artisan soaps and have only been using them for about a year and a half. From my limited experience, I can not tell the difference between a tallow soap or a quality vegan soap. That being said, I kind of figure all of the artisan soap will perform similarly and purchase based off of price, availability, and scent profile. With that being said, I have given Razor Emporium and Rex Supply my business and have always been treated above and beyond standard courtesy, so I will be supporting Matt and the gang with the purchase of 1955 when the splash drops. Hope to see the balm, too!
Hi Matt, I love the whole retro shave soap, simple and good looking lather. Are you sending out samples? I’d love to try it with my new rhodium slant adjustable…just a thought:)
Tallow for me. Been using Williams since 12, now 38 and looking for a replacement. 1955 definitely has caught my attention. I've tried the non tallow soaps, and for me they do not work as good as a tallow based shaving soap. Not slick enough, more drag, and more razor burn for me. I hear you on winter drying out the skin, I live in Wisconsin and winter is not kind to a wet shaver's skin. I use Aqua Velva all year around however, I will use Afta Original and Fresh as a face lotion during the day if I need to be outside.
Merry Christmas Matt! Great topic Matt! Put me on the side of really liking the tallow soaps. Which is not to say I don't love all the others either lol. I find tallow seems to make my skin feel healthier when I use them. My first one was your Conn. Yankee which really convinced me there was a lot to be said for the "old school" formulas regardless of how good the vegan ones are. Have a great one and will be ordering 1955 with my next order, can't wait to try it!! Stan
This new offering sounds fantastic Matt 👍🏼. You mentioned a splash will soon follow, will you also be offering an aftershave balm too? I prefer balms and also splashes aren’t able to be shipped to the EU 😆. Wishing you all a very merry Christmas 😊
I find that tallow based soaps have a slickness is hard to beat. There are vegan based soaps that can meet the standard, but they tend to be more expensive than tallow. 1955 sounds interesting, I would love to try a sample. Not sure about the scent profile for me personally, but love the idea of years and vintage-ness versus just scent names. Curious the ideas for what's coming out in 2023, are you going to 1940 or 1960? just curious .
I think both are great. My favorite soaps happen to be tallow based but there are lots of great vegan options. But PAA and caties bubbles are both great vegan options and make great lather. Declaration Grooming and Ariana and Evans just happen to be Tallow and those are my favorite bases
I can't imagine a soap better than your vegan soaps. Slick and develop a fast lather. Add your preshave bar and it really goes to town. Will have to try this new soap when I run out of some others I have.
Awesome video Matt. I'm looking forward to ordering the soap. Have you guys ever thought about producing a "butterfly" tto razor under the Rex or Razor Emporium name? An economy retro take on the super speed or something? Keep up the awesomeness. Blessings.
How well does this soap work without the pre-shave bar? The lather in the bowl looks very thin to me and doesn't appear to come to life until you apply it to your face. When that happens, I'm curious about whether the 1955 lathers on your face so well BECAUSE of the pre-shave soap. Just wondering.
I've used many vegan and tallow soaps. I don't think that one is necessarily superior/inferior to the other. I've come to the conclusion that it's more a matter of ingredient quality and soapmaker skill/attention to detail that result in a quality performance shave soap than whether or not the soap has tallow or not. It also seems that stearic acid and glycerin are pretty important.
I use a tallow based bar soap for washing my hands, body, and hair from Old Whippersnapper. This is the only bar soap that does not strip my skin of necessary oils and cause dry "ashy" skin in Winter. I have chosen to focus on tallow based shaving soaps. Off hand, I don't think I own a single shave soap that is not based on rendered animal fat. Why? This is the traditional base for shave soap. It is a low cost and abundant material and is highly resistant to oxidation, meaning that it has a shelf life of many years if handled and stored properly. The demise of the old line triple milled tallow based soaps from Germany and the Netherlands is in my view a tragedy. Most of the old brands have gone vegetal; Hasslinger, Tabac, etc., Palmolive shave stick appears to have ceased production entirely, Fine had to shift their product line to a croap from North America when their contract manufacturer ceased operations in the Netherlands. We are fortunate to have several craft soap makers in North America that continue to make tallow based soaps, though none of them are to my knowledge triple milled. There are, IIRC, a few UK based artisan soaps and a few traditional brands still in production. I believe there are a few brands still being produced in Italy and Greece as well, but they are not inexpensive or easy to source. I am sure that there are some very fine vegetal soaps from France, Italy, and the USA. I have no experience of them personally.

Pity it's not vegan... But of course everybody makes his/her own decisions. A gent vegan does not judge non-vegans..😉. And by the way I am not consistent at all... love to eat cheese once in a while as well as honey. Greetings and as always thank you for your great channel.
Making a soap that smells like something you'd find in your grandfather's bathroom is good, but how about complementing this by making something that smells like your grandmother's kitchen? My Ambassador has a sweet tooth, and wants baked goods! You can call it 195ate.
OK I know I'll get some haters and maybe even Matt himself might chime in. I recently grew my first goatee. I realized that what should have been obvious is that 99.5% of the shave is THE GOATEE area. Degree of shaving difficulty in non goatee area is 0. Goatee area is everything. OK sorry if I triggered anybody.
The best kind of commercial for a product (for your 1955 Shaving Soap): ruclips.net/video/LyD0nf28oT8/видео.html When people love a product this much and talk about it like this (the Link above) it means and it shows that the manufacturer has genuinely done it right. I really wish I could have your products - and overall good products like this - in my country too. It's a pity that I have not.

The scent of the 1955 splash is unique. Absolutely love it!

Ah yes, 1955, great year for Chevy BTW. Brings back the memories. I started shaving in 1957. Love it
Pretty shit year for Emmett Till. He was 14. Never got to shave as you have. Poor name for a soap.

After the splash is figured out, this line could use its own branded brush. I'm seeing some nice gift set potential under the 1955 banner.

I find tallow based soap seem to have a creamier consistency and I agree with you about a great post shave feel.
Oops. Meant to say “soaps” not “soap”

tallow soaps rock! regards dapper shaves
Pretty cool product still hunting for old Slim or Fatboy restore.
Sadly garage sales slim pickings.😢
slim pickings for sure, regards dapper shaves
Do you have a q962 shave soap? That’s the year I was born! 🇨🇦
Nope
Does Rex make an unscented, no petrochemicals good soap for a close double edge shave?
Inquiring minds need to know.
This is the only soap from rex. I'm not sure what you mean by petrochemicals, please be more specific as that's a very broad description.

You'll have to wait to see :)
From the website:
Scent Notes: Hyacinth, Gardenia, Vetiver, Sandalwood
Ingredients: Tallow, Stearic acid, water, coconut oil, potassium hydroxide, glycerin, shea butter, fragrance, sodium hydroxide
Size: 4 ounces
Nivea vegan hemp liquid shaving cream is great
will look into that, regards dapper shaves
nice soap review👍🎄
I think both are great. My favorite soaps happen to be tallow based but there are lots of great vegan options. But PAA and caties bubbles are both great vegan options and make great lather. Declaration Grooming and Ariana and Evans just happen to be Tallow and those are my favorite bases

Not difficult.

Works great alone. Even better with a pre shave.
I've used many vegan and tallow soaps. I don't think that one is necessarily superior/inferior to the other.

Great video. I mostly ude tallow soaps. Vegan soaps Can be a hit or miss for me. Paa vegan base is great though!🎉😊
Great video Matt. Are you guys going to do some point that for sensitive skin in the future?
This is great for my sensitive skin
You only did one pass? What about a cross grain pass, Matt?
Not needed when you have the right equipment and technique
@@RazorEmporium Ok cool. Thanks. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
give the man a break, he’s still learning 😂 regards dapper shaves
I can use vegan or tallow based soaps, however, I much prefer tallow soaps. I feel the blade less with tallow soaps, which I prefer
Pity it's not vegan...
But of course everybody makes his/her own decisions.
A gent vegan does not judge non-vegans..😉.
And by the way I am not consistent at all... love to eat cheese once in a while as well as honey.
Greetings and as always thank you for your great channel.
It has more lather than porasso
I have real preference for vegan vs talo....., but lately feel a bit more towards vegan.....both generate good lathers....
they both can be great for soaps, it’s the makers skill that will make the difference, regards dapper shaves
Making a soap that smells like something you'd find in your grandfather's bathroom is good, but how about complementing this by making something that smells like your grandmother's kitchen? My Ambassador has a sweet tooth, and wants baked goods! You can call it 195ate.
